General Questions
What does DIY Promo do?
DIY Promo provides custom promotional products, branded giveaways, and logo-ready merchandise for events, schools, companies, distributors, and marketing campaigns. We help with product sourcing, logo mockups, bulk pricing, production follow-up, and shipping support.
Can I add my logo to the products?
Yes. Most products on our website can be customized with your logo, brand name, slogan, or event message. Available imprint methods may include screen printing, pad printing, UV printing, laser engraving, embroidery, heat transfer, or full-color printing, depending on the item.
Do you provide a virtual mockup before production?
Yes. We can provide a virtual mockup so you can review the logo placement, size, and general layout before production begins. Production will start only after the artwork proof is approved.
How do I request a quote?
You can send us the product SKU, quantity, logo file, delivery address, and in-hand date. Once we receive the details, we will check pricing, production time, and shipping options for your project.
What information should I provide for a faster quote?
For the fastest quote, please include the product SKU or product link, quantity, logo or artwork file, imprint color, delivery address, required delivery date, and any special packaging or customization requests.
Pricing & MOQ
Do you have minimum order quantities?
Yes. Minimum order quantities vary by product and customization method. Some items have lower MOQs, while custom-made or special imprint items may require higher quantities. You can contact us with your target quantity, and we will help confirm the available options.
Can I order samples?
Sample availability depends on the product. Some items may have blank samples, random samples, or pre-production samples available. Sample cost and shipping cost may vary depending on the item and destination.
Artwork & Logo
What file format should I send for my logo?
Vector artwork is preferred for the best imprint quality. AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG files are ideal. High-resolution PNG or JPG files may also be accepted for mockups, but vector artwork may be required for final production.
Can you help if I only have a PNG or JPG logo?
Yes. We can review your file and let you know whether it is suitable for production. If the artwork quality is too low, a vector version may be needed before production.
Can you match Pantone colors?
Pantone color matching may be available for many imprint methods. Please provide your Pantone color number if exact brand color matching is required. Actual results may vary slightly depending on the material and printing method.
Production & Proof
How long does production take?
Production time depends on the product, quantity, imprint method, and order details. Many standard custom orders take about 7-15 business days after proof approval, but some items may require more or less time. Rush options may be available for selected products.
Do you offer rush orders?
Rush service may be available for certain items. Please send us your in-hand date, quantity, and delivery address so we can check whether the timeline is possible before confirming the order.
When does production start?
Production usually starts after the order details, payment, and artwork proof are approved. To avoid delays, please review the proof carefully and confirm all details as soon as possible.
Can I order blank products without a logo?
Yes. Some products may be available as blank items without logo imprint. Please contact us with the product SKU and quantity so we can confirm availability and pricing.
Do you offer bulk pricing?
Yes. Most products are priced based on quantity. Larger quantities usually receive better unit pricing. Send us your target quantity, and we will provide the best available bulk quote.
Can you help source products that are not listed on the website?
Yes. If you are looking for a specific promotional product that is not listed, you can send us a reference photo, product idea, target budget, and quantity. Our team can help source suitable options for your project.
What customization methods do you offer?
Available customization methods may include screen printing, pad printing, UV printing, laser engraving, embroidery, heat transfer, debossing, embossing, and full-color printing. The best method depends on the product material, logo design, and order quantity.
Can you customize packaging?
Custom packaging may be available for selected products, including gift boxes, belly bands, inserts, poly bags, or kitting options. Please let us know your packaging requirements when requesting a quote.
Shipping & Delivery
Do you ship to the United States?
Yes. We can ship promotional product orders to U.S. addresses. Shipping time and cost depend on the product, quantity, shipping method, and delivery address.
Can you ship to multiple locations?
Multi-location shipping may be available depending on the order. Please provide the shipping addresses and quantity per location so we can check the best shipping arrangement.
Samples & Sourcing
What should I check before approving the proof?
Please carefully review the logo, spelling, imprint size, imprint color, product color, placement, and any special instructions. Once the proof is approved and production starts, changes may not be possible.
Can I change my order after proof approval?
Changes may be limited after proof approval, especially once production has started. If you need to make a change, contact us as soon as possible and we will check whether the order can still be adjusted.
What if I am not sure which product is best for my event?
You can send us your event type, budget, quantity, timeline, and target audience. We can recommend suitable promotional products based on your project needs.
Do you work with distributors?
Yes. We support promotional product distributors, agencies, event planners, schools, businesses, and organizations with custom logo products and bulk order projects.
